Which sentence is a
compound sentence?
Time iS not always change. Time can also mean continuity, and it can mean keeping
acknowledged truths in mind despite differences in circumstances. There iS no better
example of this in Things Fall Apart than the retellings of the proverb about the bird
named Eneke. The language in both retellings is almost identical despite the length of
time that has passed between their repetitions. In comparing the usages of the same
proverb, Achebe allows his readers to note the similarities and differences between
the situations, and he helps them understand how this story can be applied to their
own lives.
